To Purge or Not to Purge....

So I just realized I haven't posted for a week. Bad me. Not much has been happening lately. We both suffered really bad sinus headaches for two days so we just laid around and ached. Not much got done around here. Allergies can be really bad in the desert.

We did a bit more cleaning out of the closet and filled up another trash bag of useless junk. The hardest part is going through all the paperwork and determining what we really need. I can't believe how much paperwork we have. I decided we only keep tax stuff, manuals to current electronics we will sell later or don't know how to use properly and anything pertinent to now. This last category is kind of tricky because it is kind of the misc. file. I got rid of lots of old work related stuff. Why oh why did I keep all that!?!? Knowing that this is the first of many purges, we are probably keeping more than we should. But, anything that we get rid of now is less we have to get rid of later. The more I purge the easier it gets......

We are planning a big trip in July. We will be heading to Spokane for my cousin's wedding. We are taking two weeks and are driving. We plan on lots of sightseeing during this trip. Although it won't be a camping trip, we are going to throw the tent in the car just in case. We do have reservations for one night in Montana to stay in a cabin at a campground and we thought we might try to camp a few more nights on the road. There is so much to see between here and there. It has been hard to decided what we should see and what can wait. One of the things I am looking forward to with full time RVing is being able to take our time and see more. We will be able to take our time and go where and when we feel like it.

About Me

I have been in a wonderful relationship with an awesome woman since 2004.
I am on a life journey that is constantly changing and evolving. I am embracing all the changes and look forward to this adventure called my life.
I made a huge life change when I retired and we moved from Indianapolis to Tucson, AZ in 2006. The next major change will be happening within the next 16 months. We are going to sell everything and live full time in an RV. As always, I don't know how all this is going to happen, I just know that it will all fall into place at the right time.
